First match today, I got less than 400 honor! I have no Idea what was going on. I turned the center beacon on Dreadnought then ran up to the side beacon. I caught a Phantom and gave chase. He blinked back to I ran back to the beacon. My teammates had turned the beacon by then so I ran towards the red home beacon. Just as I got there, a Red spawned. I hit the fire button and immediately blinked back! 「whiskey tango foxtrot」! Every now and then my ability is activated while turning and my finger is nowhere near the ability button. So 「fluffernutter」ing annoying. I went after the red again, died and we only held center beacon, by the time I chose it we lost all beacons so we were basically stuck spawning from home.
Second match seemed pretty good at first. It was a tough match on Castle until the Reds dropped their Mings. I was able to take 3 of them down before my phone crashed. I have no Idea how the match ended. Bull「dookie」! All I know is that the Reds dropped 5 Mings and I took or helped take down 3 of them and was working on the fourth.
The third match was on Carrier. It was a pretty normal match. I got at least 4 beacons since I retook center a second time. I think I was just outplayed because I botted out before I was able to drop my Noodle. I was just so pissed from the first two, that I wanted to throw my phone. I didn't feel like waiting for the stats. I won't get the new challenges for 5 more hours, so I'll just quit for a while.

I had a game where some hacker was taking beacons and dishing damage without engaging. Didn't record it because i was trying to figure out who was doing it, don't think they even left the red spawn. Definitely 「dookie」ty game

Yup, total ?dookie? today. There’?s only so long you can blame it on the monthly reset.

 Yup. Had this game first thing this morning. What do you do? I mean, I killed half the other team and ran beacons like crazy. It was all I could do while half my team just camped and watched me. I just put my ipad down in disgust and got ready for work. This is exactly why I squad 90% of the time. |

Sorry it was not on the 2.12 META level, but we know how match making works. Honestly, take you and the other top red out of the match and it probably would have been more balanced and enjoyable for all. Kinda thinking you are trying to boast more about your four six, 16/10 than anything. |

It’s frustrating as hell to put in an effort like that and still come out on the losing end (not that I’ve personally ever had results quite that impressive). The other side of that coin is playing your butt off and feeling like you had the game of your life, only to find you finished dead last. Those I’ve had a LOT of lately. |

I know it is Danny Linguini, welcome to the life of a random. Like almost every game. I’m just saying, not feeling real bad for a game that seems to be pretty evenly matched as far as damage goes. Beacons, seems as though they should have gotten more, but maybe they were trying to hunt Loki. Who knows the situation. There is a HMFIC almost every game, and as the month wears on it gets even worse. Probably even worse for a death squadder who gets caught alone in the wild. Mi apologies for calling you out GuitarGuy ... |

I'd love to have more games where people actually managed to crack 500k damage whilst top player gets 4+ mill. |

Just a side note: The time slot where I was playing these matches was my former regular playing time because they had been the most balanced in the past few months. I would try to clear all tasks so I wouldn't have to play later in the evening when I would get slaughtered. After the Event Tasks began resetting later in the evening, I began playing later to clear the tasks before going to bed. The later matches became more balanced and more enjoyable. I can clear all the tasks and have at least 21 hours to wait for them to reset. I wonder if anyone else has noticed a shift in times for getting balanced matches.

Now here’s one worth ranting about. Half the team was absolutely useless. Four of them were done about three minutes in, the rest of the game was 5 on 2.  |
